    Still Water, Still Here

    When the floodwaters rose, lives changed forever. When they fell, we were left to rebuild — hearts, homes, and hope. When the water goes still, how do those who are still here face the aftermath? 🌊 Whether you are a Texan affected by the Hill Country Floods on July 4th, 2025, or you're any other human--who has, and/or will one day face trauma and grief--may this message give a voice to what your soul goes through, while also reminding us of the hope and strength that exists when we come together in the "after" of life's hardest moments.

    Castaway: Impact Statement

    If you have ever lost someone close to you, I hope that this production can give some words to the indescribable experience of loss and grief. This is the statement I prepared for the sentencing hearing of the young man whose actions took the life of someone very special.

    The Polyphony of Life

    Polyphony /puh · LIFF · uh · NEE/ (n.): a style of musical composition employing two or more simultaneous but relatively independent melodic lines (Webster dictionary). This, I have found, is the complexity of grief and the healing journey that can accompany it.
